Lulworth Pirates

they look like an ideal gift, I'll put them on our wedding list.

May recommend Gemmeus ? Nicky does very good 15th century stuff (as well as Roman, Anglo Saxon and 16th century). She will also take commissions as well. Nicky is fantastic, I worked with her to get the engagement ring for my now fiance, all in secret. The ring was a perfect fit just from the sizin...

You can see their... roots and everything. And thats just the stuff I have uploaded so far, might Sir be interested in s...

Note also only one pair of gauntlets and no plackarts, unless they are called something else(?). I've always had Plackarts worn over jacks as a historical no no, I don't think i have ever seen a picture where they are worn without some kind of upper body armour as well, e.g. breastplate or brig Per...

In the Will of one of the Lady Hungerfords (late C.14th I think) it is stipulated that the children of her servants are to be supplied with black clothing, or black cloth to make clothes.

She also has 4 women with torches stand around her body as it lay in the chapel.

Just a few shots of some of the great outfits people wore on saturday night

you'll need to be able to recieve a 5mb file by email though.

Tewkesbury 2008 - Sunday

Picture here: http://home.adelphi.edu/sbloch/ma/tents/pictures/martini/fogliano.biggest.html Main page http://home.adelphi.edu/sbloch/sca/tents/pictures/db/index.sh...

they were sewn inside out, then the jupon was turned inside out and the last bit sewn closed.

She's really very clever with that kind of thing

Very sensible...

Boromir's victory dance should never be used by under 18's.

I totally missed how long this thread had become! I stole the LOTR thing from somewhere, I forget where, but it amused me no end. The Jupon cost me half my worldly good, as it was made by my lovely Fiance, who is a bit of a dab hand with needle and thread! She also painted the pennant flying overhea...

nope, but I am

that was just post fight show, so it is a little pulled about from that.

My new Jupon was finished just in time for a very damp and windy show at Dover last week, and I just wanted to show it off some more! http://www.bbilko.co.uk/Dover%202008/slides/IMG_1457.JPG I am so pleased with the look, all I need now is the coat of plates to improve my silhouette... well and perh...
